“We cannot choose between growth & sustainability. We must have both.” UNILEVER CEO

“Unilever and CEO Paul Polman are the crown jewel of the consumer products industry.” Sandra Rupp, Executive Coach in FT comments (she now has viewers in 100 countries)

“Introducing the priceless Sandra Rupp.” FT Alphaville

Unilever CEO Paul Polman accepts Business for Peace Award

Each morning I wake up to my Financial Times alerts on my smart phone to see headlines about my favorite CEOs. About ten days ago, I almost fell out of bed….There was a story in FT Alphaville (founded by the talented Paul Murphy) about Unilever stock and something going on with Kraft Heinz. As a world’s top business thinker, the first thing I did was head for my laptop and Twitter where I can read headlines of 25+ global publications. Next I was on the phone to a friend at a top hedge fund in New York asking him to tell me more about private equity firm 3G. Interestingly Warren Buffett helped my Dad find his CEO job back in the ’70s. I had even consulted to companies like Cadbury. I had to work fast, I had to take my comments to the FT, and I had to get creative because CEO Paul Polman and his visionary Sustainable Living Plan are worth everything we’ve got! He is my favorite CEO in the world, an innovator like no one else: irreplaceable and highly regarded by other Davos CEOs (and Executive Coaches). And the rest is Herstory: Yes FT Alphaville, Sandra Rupp, CEO Paul Polman and even Sir Martin Sorrell at WPP helped save the most historically important & sustainable company in the world: UNILEVER. And now I want to work with CEO Paul Polman and CMO Keith Weed to communicate the importance of The Sustainable Living Plan to investment managers around the globe. When we look back on business history, I believe we will see this as a KEY turning point for shareholders, consumers & employees. And I look forward to many more years ahead for Unilever’s highly talented CEO Paul Polman who was successful in fending off a takeover in record time with a little help from the many people who believe in him. Watch my video for the EXCITING STORY: Paul, let’s take everyone from Sustainable to Flourishing!

QUOTE: One of the first things I learned in Business School is to go where the power is.” Sandra Rupp, Executive Coach & Media Presenter

LEADERS it is with great pleasure that I thank one of the key people who inspired my Davos Woman CEO Challenge: I had the good fortune to hear Warren Buffett speak at the Fortune Women’s Most Powerful Conference several year ago. He actually helped my father find a CEO job in the 1970s. I have admired Warren Buffett over many years not just for his business success, but also for his upbeat, positive personality. In my new video I reveal how he inspired me and how Silicon Valley CEOs, @FTAlphaville and @WSJ are helping too. As many of you know I am now inviting all CEOs to appoint 30%+ women to their CEO Teams, bring two ladies to Davos & interview with me on camera on the topic of Women & Leadership. Maybe then we can even get the legendary Warren Buffett to attend Davos! I also would love to work with WEF to create a New Category for more Women Age 45+ to attend World Economic Forum. Watch my NEW VIDEO & many thanks to all supporting me:
